I have never seen anything so well put together… It’s a great circuit. I just can’t say enough about Miller Motorsports Park. This place speaks volumes when you look around this great track…”

Yee Haw!

Only problem is that I want to DRIVE the ACR out there and back and don't think it'll tow the trailer if Henry wants to race the Comp Coupe in the Viper Race Series.

Terrible decisions, huh?

Standing by with finger on the "book it" button....

And THANK YOU for listening to Viper Nation and striving for a great Viper filled weekend that is affordable.

 

[01sapphirebob]

[99 R/T 10]

Looking forward to it Chris! As in years past it was hosted by the manufacturer, so will Fiat be a participating entity of this or is it strictly going to be put on by the VCA?

[J&R3xV10]

[RTTTTed]

wow thats even closer to me than I thought it would be! Just be VERY careful of the drivers there! maybe the worst I have ever seen.

I was in Montreal once. 30mph means +60mph and accidents usually included about 8 cars! Red meant GO FAST and GREEN traffic lights meant slow down and look. weird, but that's the worst drivers I ever saw. Decided that if I ever cross Canada - I'll drive around Quebec.

[RX VIPER]

Count me in! Loving the location too!

... to drive.. or not to drive...??

 

[Y2K5SRT]

Will there be organized cruises/tours for those of us that don't wish to track our cars?

Absolutely! Beautiful organized scenic cruises including coaches (tour buses) for those that don't bring their cars such as many of our European friends. This will be a very full weekend for every flavor of owner - from track rats to cruise junkies to those that just like to sit back and observe. One of the coolest things is having the ability to split the track at MMP into two completely separate courses. This means that our friends with World Challenge and Viper Days/Dodge Viper Cup can be using one track while the owners track their cars adjacent to them on a completely different course.

So if you don't want to track your own car or even if you don't bring it with you at all, you can still watch major race series (practices and actual races) as they go all out and door-to-door around the course. Imagine watching Tommy Archer as he leads the field in a Viper Comp Coupe as Porsche, Cadillac, and others giving chase. Or imagine seeing a dozen of the new Viper ACR-X's in a variety of different paint schemes as their 640 HP motors roar by. And don't forget that we will have TWO different full-length kart tracks with karts as well to keep everybody entertained. We hope that Dodge will be bringing a few extra cars for folks to take turns driving as well.

We are very, very excited about this event and hope you will be too. Oh, and about those liquor laws - those recently changed too!
